Description
Talla leaves the closed confines of the Temple to explore the Outer world and soon finds herself at the centre of a quest to find the new Queen. Talla is forced to rely on her own resourcefulness and ingenuity to discover who she can trust... the enigmatic veiled Priestesses who raised her, the silent, ominous OutRiders who seek her or the people of the Outer caught up in her story and the ensuing events...
Talla discovers uncomfortable truths about her world and the sinister, entangled threads of power as she attempts to discover her own origins and will find herself and her companions tested to the limits in this, the first of The Emberjar series of books.
Flammeus is a thoughtful, layered book, with a richly described world and a strong-willed heroine, Talla. Through the quests which arise throughout the story, we get to know the characters and how their place in the world impacts their thoughts and actions. The story unfolds the details of the ways in which the people of Oramia live and are governed and the lengths that they will go to in order to preserve the old traditions.
Flammeus is the first book in The Emberjar series which follows Talla through the sequence of puzzles, mysteries and other worlds through which she travels during her life, and explores the things she learns and the way she develops through them.
Readers enjoy Flammeus for its imaginative world and its absorbing characters and the questions they ask of us and our own world.
